Rundown of the current protests, rioting and state crackdown that have erupted in France over the police murder of a 17 year old brown boy.

I've seen way too many Europeans on here insisting ACAB is just a USAmerican thing. It's really important y'all know that it isn't. Cops as an institution is fundamentally fascist, and in the Global North, white supremacist.

My Advice for France

If any of the rioters arrested during the protests are in France illegally, they should be immediately deported.

Those individuals can go back and burn and loot their own country.

Not to be one of those "why is no one talking about X" posters, but why do we as a site only ever talk about police brutality when it happens in the USA or UK??

A 17 year old boy, Nahel M, was shot by the police in Nanterre, France, at a traffic stop. I've not seen anything about it on Tumblr, I feel like this stuff tends to trend on here.

Either way, read more about it here:

Updates about following protests:

I'm not aware of any sources for supporting his family, or good charities to donate to in France. If anyone has anything, please add in reblogs.

Being a murderer in France apparently makes you a millionaire cuz why did these idiots make a gofundme for the cop that killed that poor child, cuz he was a CHILD and his name is Nahel, and it’s gotten up to 1 million euros…Like be freaking fr. Not to mention the news calling protesters thugs, mind you these are Black and Brown kids and adults protesting and rioting, and the president or whoever that man is saying that the riots are a result of violent video games and tv. BE FREAKING FR! All the racist and xenophobic posts being made by white French ppl as well. Like y’all can riot for healthcare but a cop kills a 17 year old boy, lies and claims he tried to run him over only to be caught lying on camera, and French Algerians and French Africans suddenly can’t riot???? For a country that claims not to be racist yall sure are good at it. And apparently ppl are mad cuz Nahel’s mom supports the rioters. Like shut up. 🙄

the UK's conservative political movement has its roots in British aristocracy looking at the French Revolution and saying "umm... maybe chopping off the heads of aristocrats is bad... because tradition is good?"

so I'm not really surprised if the British reaction to French protests over the murder of Nahel M is hostile towards the protesters. fear of French radicalism helped to found this country's political system.

2023 / 26

Aperçu of the week:

"Ah - does one check what one wishes for?"

(Voltaire)

Bad News of the Week:

It has been one week since the far-right AfD (Alternative für Deutschland / Alternative for Germany) held political office for the first time with the regional administrator in the Sonneberg district of Thuringia. Since then, shock waves have been running through the country. This, is the word, is a breach of the dam and a bad omen for the upcoming state elections in the eastern states, where the AfD is in some cases ahead in the forecasts. There is talk of firewalls that must now be erected against the right, and it is the task of the democratic parties to prevent the AfD from gaining power.

Yet this development was actually seen coming. Many East Germans still feel that they are being treated as second-class citizens, which is not true. And the tendency toward populism and extreme views, especially toward minorities such as migrants or Muslims, is almost traditionally high in the east. Apparently, many are simply no longer reached by the "mainstream parties" that like to be lumped together ("Those up there in Berlin are all the same..."). There is a lesson to be learned from this. Or at least it should.

The conservative CDU and CSU have apparently learned nothing from this. They cannot understand why a fundamental, albeit hardly justified, dissatisfaction with the traffic light coalition of Social Democrats, Greens and Liberals governing at the federal level is not paying into their account. And what is party and parliamentary group chairman Friedrich Merz doing? He is also veering toward populism.

On the leading news portal spiegel.de stood last Monday - as pretty much first reactions - two messages more memorable one above the other. Above, a journalist writes in the commentary "Those who stayed at home are the problem" about the fact that a voter turnout of 60% (in the district council election in Sonneberg) means that 40% apparently did/do not care whether an extreme right-wing party rules their district. And below that you can read "Reaction to AfD triumph: Merz announces tougher course against Greens". Excuse me?

So the conservatives really want to seek your salvation in not fighting against the AfD, but instead even swinging to its course, positioning themselves against a supposed left? Even though the CDU currently governs together with the Greens in six (!) German states? By the way, there are only three other governing constellations, so the Greens are currently their primary political partner. And they are now to be attacked primarily in order to sharpen the own profile. And that should then convince a conservative clientele not to vote for the AfD (anymore).

I'm curious to see what course the respective CDU state associations will take in the next election. So far, we've heard mostly good things about the joint work with the Greens at the state level. This questionable approach already proves one thing to me: Friedrich Merz, who was not politically active at all during the long years of the Merkel government, has not yet arrived in the current reality. Please explain this to him by someone from his party. Otherwise, the far-right will continue to grow stronger.

PS: Yesterday the first AfD mayor in Germany was elected in Raguhn-Jeßnitz / Saxony-Anhalt. Pandora's box seems to be opened...

Good News of the Week:

France is on fire. The 17-year-old Nahel M. with a migrant background is unjustifiably shot by a policeman on Tuesday morning during a traffic control in Nanterre near Paris, the video evidence is clear. Since then, there have been serious riots all over France: hundreds of cars are set on fire, stores are looted, town halls are stormed. 45,000 police officers are on the streets every night, public transport is at a standstill, there are isolated curfews, and dozens of rioters - often frighteningly young - are taken into custody every day.

So far, so bad. But it's the things you don't see in the media for days that are remarkable - remarkably good. A state force that automatically stands protectively in front of one of its police officers? No, a press conference by the prosecutor Pascal Prache of Nanterre says "The legal conditions for the use of the weapon are not met." The policeman remains in custody, under investigation for second-degree murder. And Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne acknowledged already one day after the incident that the police operation "clearly did not comply with the rules of engagement for police."

A grieving family condemning a systemically racist police force and showing solidarity with the protests? No, the mother Mounia M. says "I don't blame the police, I blame one person." And grandmother Nadia M. calls for an end to the violence: "We don't want the rioters to destroy stores, buses and schools. They are using Nahel as an excuse. We want the situation to calm down. I want this to stop." She said people should stop the nonsense, adding that the judiciary will do its job.

A president who uncompromisingly takes a hard line against the riots? No, Emmanuel Macron calls the riots "inexcusable," but the death of Nahel M. "unforgivable" - and so far refuses to declare the state of emergency demanded by many. Participation in the EU summit, a government trip to Germany, countless appointments: canceled, the captain remains on the bridge, his statements are serious but moderate.

Representatives of minorities showing understanding for the outbreak of violence as a logical consequence of oppression and two-class society? No, for example, soccer superstar Kylian Mbappé also wrote on behalf of the national team that they were "shocked by the brutal death of the young Nahel." But just also: "Since this tragic event, we have witnessed the expression of popular anger, the content of which we understand, but the form of which we cannot approve." Violence, he commented, should give way to "other peaceful and constructive expressions."

All of this is good. Because only a differentiated, balanced approach by all French people can fill in the rifts in society. Which have existed not only since the tragic death of this teenager. And bring peace back to the country - including Nahel M.'s family.

Personal happy moment of the week:

We started the new table tennis season. And have already played a few hours in the first week. Especially because my son has recently discovered this hobby for himself at school. Fortunately, I can rely on my muscle memory: I haven't lost a game yet.

I couldn't care less...

...about the US Supreme Court and its landmark decisions. The partisan political influence is so obvious that one is reminded of banana republics.

As I write this...

...I am thinking about Putin. Because a colleague told me about an interesting theory about the short uprising of the Wagner mercenary troops in Russia last weekend: the whole thing was a fake staged by the Kremlin or even Vladimir Putin himself. With three goals. First, to test whether and how the elites stand by him and his position of power. Second, to test whether and how the population stands by his "special military operation" and his leadership. And third, to prepare the ground for declaring a general mobilization after all - since the need for a more broadly based military force has finally become apparent. Seems absurd? Haven't cracks in the system and crumbling control shown instead? Well, who knows? Maybe the history books will one day.

Post Scriptum

My symbolic thinker Aristotle is wearing a green awareness ribbon in the second half of 2023. As a sign of the planet earth threatened by our actions. The protection of which mankind still does not consistently tackle, although it has actually arbitrary reasons for it. After all, nothing less than survival is at stake. In his hand he holds a fictitious issue of Time magazine with the cover "The return of history", in which the graphic artist Patrick Mulder has given a Putin portrait a Hitler beard. As his policies increasingly bear fascist traits and threaten to drag all of Europe into an abyss.

Nahel the child killed by french cops was not black he was maghrebi, of algerian origins

My bad! Thanks for the heads up, I made the correction both at the top and bottom of the post.

#t-minus until the 'should we use BLM for this murdered African kid' discourse though #yes we should because there's nothing uniform about race. like it's just arbitrary silly buggers rules invented by whites as a caste system #Black in the UK is also different from Black in the US #There's a reason Black used to be a political identity during the Civil Rights Movement #but asking people to define our struggles by our mutual oppressors #instead of comparing individual suffering #is a sure way to get them screaming crying throwing up #fyi none of this is about you nonnie. calling Nahel Black would be imposing a US racial context onto a French one #i'm just ruminating on race as a political identity vs race as a socio-cultural one #asks #anon #nahel m #french protests #knee of huss

The incident had sparked widespread riots across the country, which had been ongoing since Tuesday morning when 17-year-old Nahel Merzouk was killed. In response to the escalating violence, a staggering…

J’ai parcouru la liste des 400 premiers signataires de la tribune de soutien au JDD, contre la nomination de Geoffroy Lejeune. Alors bien sûr, on y retrouve l’ensemble de la racaille de gauche et d’extrême-gauche, à savoir les retraités du PS, les hystériques d’EELV et les robespierristes de LFI, divers associatifs hyper-subventionnés, pas mal d’ex-quelque chose affidés à l’État et à ses carrières – mais aussi les plus emblématiques têtes creuses du “monde du spectacle”, qui ne ratent jamais une occasion d’ouvrir leur claquemerde sur des sujets dont ils ne comprennent même pas l’énoncé, des ténors de l’anti-médecine covidistes et ultra-pro-vax, des personnes de référence de la société civile (entendez quelques franc-macs notoires et autres profiteurs de marchés publics), des pointures du CAC 40 et divers affairistes financiers délinquants (pléonasmes), quelques sportifs particulièrement idiots, mais aussi un cycliste (?), un streamer (??), une paléoclimatologue (???). Tout cela dessine le joli visage de la tolérance à gauche, visage à côté duquel le portrait de Dorian Gray ressemble à un photomaton de Oui-Oui. Manque la signature du jeune Nahel, petit ange parti trop tôt dans le décor. J.-M. M.

Liberals came up with the whole concept of a "social contract" to explain that people obey laws in return for the state offering protection. Then they see the police murder a child and say "well I'm not sure that justifies breaking the law!!!"

What part of their own useless philosophy don't they understand?
